THE LAKE EXPERIENCE
Trails End Lake is a rare find—a motor-free lake with no tides and no wakes, just peaceful water warm enough for summertime swimming. We have 70 feet of private waterfront with shallow entry, ideal for children and confident swimmers alike.

Water Activities Year-Round: Take out our 17-foot canoe, kayak, or stand-up paddle board any time of day, any season. Paddle out to watch the sunrise with your morning coffee, or explore the shoreline at sunset. From mid-May to mid-October, swim out to our floating dock to relax in the sun and dive into crystal-clear water. The lake is stocked with trout in spring and summer for fishing.

Waterfront Amenities: Grill on our deck situated under cedar and pine trees, gather around the lakefront fire pit as the sun sets, or rinse off in our outdoor shower with lake views. After dark, relax in the all-season hot tub under the stars.

Games & Entertainment: We provide cornhole, bocce ball, ladder toss, and a dartboard in our outbuilding overlooking the lake. For indoor fun, enjoy puzzles, board games, and a karaoke machine.
